create a job with an entry form/window

[pawe84]

Hi everyone,

as I know in Talend you can activate a prompt at the context variable.

When the job is started, a prompt window appears and the user can add a value if you are working at Talend Studio.

Is there a way to have such a window when the job already has been compiled in order to

execute it without Talend Studio, so a user can insert a value?

Thanks for any information.

Hello @Patrick Weber​ 

If you have only one context variable or if you're ok with asking one question at a time with a simple message box for each one, you might use the tMsgBox component.

But if you're looking to fill a set of context variables with a single window, you'll need to implement a custom solution using Java. I suggest you take a look at JFrame and JPanel classes as a start.
